+I've been given a laptop with optimus technology.
+I took the following SRPMS and rebuilt them for mageia 2:
+
+bumblebee-3.0-11.mga3.src.rpm
+dkms-acpi_call-0.1-2.mga3.src.rpm
+dkms-bbswitch-0.4.2-1.mga3.src.rpm
+libbsd-0.4.1-1.mga3.src.rpm
+virtualgl-2.3.1-1.mga3.src.rpm
+
+
+I have two issues (just FYI):
+
+1) the [driver-nvidia] section in the configuration file should have a line
+
+KernelDriver=nvidia-current
+
+otherwise bumbleebed couldn't load the module and wouldn't start
+
+2) running glxspheres with optirun, not only takes 5 seconds to start, but is slower than with the integrated graphics card (60 frames/sec. without optirun vs. 40 frames/sec. with optirun). I see they mention it in the FAQ, so this isn't probably an issue with the packages.
+
+
+I'm using the 310.32 nvidia driver built with the script by Anssi Hannula
